Political activist and former Marine Adam Kokesh was arrested over the weekend for merely exercising his 1st amendment right during a pro-marijuana protest that took place on Saturday in Philadelphia, PA and is now being charged with "assaulting a federal officer" even though video shows he did not resist arrest and he was not smoking any pot either and was arrested after he had given a key note speech.
If he is indeed being charged with assaulting an officer, Kokesh will be one of many Americans who have been hit with such charges despite acting peacefully and compliant and in some cases people who have been beaten by cops have been charged with assaulting a cop even though it was the cops that beat the shit of the people. Video of the incident shows Kokesh holding his hands up as he is dragged off and he clearly did not resist arrest or make an aggressive moves towards the cops
The charge carries a 10 year sentence in jail and would kibosh Mr. Kokesh's plan of leading an armed protest in Washington DC in July if this is able to stick
America has officially become a police state and only underscores how Americans are being kidnapped and temporarily disappeared into the prison system for engaging in constitutionally protected free speech which is now a crime if you speak ill of the government and their corruption..
